With the 2026 World Cup in full swing, Paris Saint-Germain is already shaping its summer transfer plans. The French champions are accelerating their recruitment drive, notably targeting Maghnes Akliouche. The France international has reportedly made his intentions clear regarding a potential departure from AS Monaco this summer.
After securing a second consecutive Champions League title, PSG is gearing up for a busy summer window. The capital club aims to provide Luis Enrique with additional options for the upcoming season, and has stepped up efforts to land Maghnes Akliouche. The 24-year-old, currently representing France at the 2026 World Cup, appears to have already made up his mind about his future.
